?Youth? is not a time of life. It is a state of mind.
Nobody grows old by living a number of years; People grow old but deserting ideals. Years may wrinkle your skin, but, to give up enthusiasm wrinkles your soul. You are as young as your faith and hope. As old as your doubts and despair.
Dates to keep open and remember: Sept. 16, Rosebud No. 20 will have a smorgasbord supper at Unity Hall, 639
